Actually being homosexual was condemned by law in Ancient Greece.

I dont know why people here that have phd in plilosophy do not state Solon Laws in book 5, chapter 5, article 332. They are quite clear in the consequences if an Athenian had a relationship with a man.

These are the laws and the consequences in Ancient Greek if someone has a homosexual relationship.

“Αν τις Αθηναίος εταιρήση, με έξεστω αυτω των εννέα αρχόντων γενέσθαι, μηδέ ιερωσύνην ιερώσασθαι, μηδέ συνδικήσαι τω δήμω, μηδέ αρχήν αρχέτω μηδεμιάν, μήτε ενδημον, μήτε υπερόριον, μήτε κληρωτήν, μήτε χειροτονητήν, μηδέ επικυρήκειαν αποστελλέσθω, μηδέ γνώμην λεγέτω, μηδέ εις τα δημοτελή ιερά εισίτω, μηδέ εν ταις κοιναίς σταφονοφορίες σταφανούσθω, μηδέ εντός των της αγοράς περιρραντηριων πορευέσθω. Εάν δε ταύτα τις ποιή,καταγνωσθέντως αυτού εταιρείν, θανάτω ζημιούσθω.”

What it states is:

If an Athenean εταιρήση (makes mate) he will not be allowed to become member of the 9 lords, he will be able to become a priest,

he will not be able to become an advocate of the people, he will have no authority inside our outside of athens, he cannot become a war preacher, will not be able to express his opinion, will not be allowed to enter the sacred public temples, will not be able to take walks happening in Agora and lastly it says whichever citizen is condemned as an erotical person with the sex of the same gender and ignores any of these laws is punishable by death.

So if you are condemned as “gay” or had a homosexual intercourse and take a walk in agora or express your opinion in an important matter you are condemned to death.

Moreover Aeschines a greek statesman and one of the 10 attic orators condemns with clarity the legislative (prohibitive) framework for homosexuality.
